SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT IN PRACTICE - RAOUL-GABRIEL URMA, RICHARD WARBURTON

Mastering modern programming ideas can be a challenge for novice Java programmers. Is it better to focus on object-oriented programming or functional programming? This practical guide offers a comprehensive project-based approach to help you master the key skills needed to be a productive programmer.

• Design Principles: Learn to write easy-to-maintain code.
• Code Flexibility: Make it easier to maintain and handle exceptions.
• Dependency Rules: Understand how to apply dependency, cohesion, and SOLID rules.
• Test-Driven Development: Use it to solve new design problems.
• Outside-In Approach: Go from a general vision to the basic functions of the application.
• Functional Programming: Learn the basics and apply them in Java.

Raoul-Gabriel Urma and Richard Warburton demonstrate how to implement real-world projects while learning best programming practices. Each chapter focuses on a specific project, from a simple batch program to a full-fledged application. If you have basic Java knowledge, this guide will introduce you to the latest programming practices, enabling you to create robust and easy-to-maintain software.
